Creed (Blu-Ray)
Adonis "Donnie" Johnson (Michael B. Jordan) is the illegitimate son of boxing legend Apollo Creed (once played by Carl Weathers) who was born after his father's death. After being in and out of foster homes and juvenile detention in Los Angeles, he was visited and eventually adopted by Apollo's wealthy, compassionate widow Mary Anne (Phylicia Rashad), raising him into a smart young man with a white-collar finance job. Naturally, a promotion can't even keep Adonis in L.A. when he has the promise of being a full-time fighter in his blood. Having some wins under his belt from boxing in a Tijuana ring, the self-taught boxer heads to Philadelphia and looks up his father's former opponent-turned-best friend, Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone), who's still retired, managing an Italian eatery called Adrian's, and visiting the headstones of his beloved wife and crotchety brother-in-law Paulie in a folding chair to read the newspaper aloud. Adonis wants Rocky to train him, and once the old Italian lets go of his reluctance, he proceeds to whip Lil' Creed into shape at his former gym. Hoping to step out of his father's shadow, Adonis doesn't want to fight under the Creed namesake; he would rather build his own legacy.
